First it was the BarryCare website debacle to the tune of billions, then it was Hillary's server being hacked (which they never released for further investigation), and now its the Iowa caucus 'program' disaster. Claiming these people are technologically incompetent doesn't even begin to cover it.

And I heard earlier they never did a complete end-t-end test of this new phone program/system. That goes beyond incompetence straight into irresponsibility.

State party chairman Troy Price informed campaigns that he would release at least 50% of all caucus results at 4pm CST / 5 pm EST, but he declined to answer pointed questions from frustrated campaign representatives about when the party would release the full results or how it could ensure their integrity - even whether it would be a matter of days or weeks.

'We will continue to find more votes for Biden and lose all of Bernie's' errr...'We will continue to work through the process,' Price said on the call, which was monitored by The Associated Press. 'We want to get some results out there.'



Democrats will publish HALF of the Iowa caucus results by 5pm - but crisis could last for weeks leaving state with NO official winner

I read that earlier this morning. If ballots are sat on for days or weeks what could possibly go wrong. If this were the Republicans I would be mad as hell but now I can't quit laughing about it.

This is all just wonderful. It truly makes me smile to see all the gnashing of teeth and rendering of garments. Of course Bernie won or at least had a damn good night. Of course Joe cratered. And of course the DNC is desperately trying to figure out how to spin this in a way that changes the results to what they wanted.

The democrats don’t trust you with making the right decisions on your own health care or planning your retirement. They don’t trust you with owning a gun. Increasingly they don’t trust you with free exercise of speech and religion. And yes, they don’t trust you to vote for the right candidate, not even on the left. You are part of an unruly mob that needs to be lorded over by your betters.

Maybe the low information crowd in the center and perhaps some left of center will finally wake up but I doubt it.

It seems as though the fix is in (again). But this time, they're not waiting 'til the last minute as they did in 2016. They are fully aware that Bernie would crash and "Bern" in November and they will stop at nothing to prevent that.

This Daily Wire article is great:
quote:
CURL: President Trump First Ever To Win Republican AND Democratic Caucuses In Iowa
By Joseph Curl
DailyWire.com

By dawn on Tuesday, it was clear that the debacle in Iowa was unprecedented.

A perfect storm had rolled in just in time for the state’s first-in-the-nation vote on the 2020 Democratic presidential nomination. A newly, apparently untested app meant to ease communication among precinct chiefs during the caucuses failed completely, with the app designers blaming “coding issues.” A failsafe backstop — having precinct chiefs simply phone in the results to the state party headquarters — also failed, with workers being too busy to answer the calls.

The whole mess was a terrible start for Democrats vying to replace President Trump in the White House. Memes immediately exploded across the internet, with one being repeated often: The Democrats want to run the country, but they can’t even hold a caucus in the cornfields.

For the record, the Republicans also held their caucuses in Iowa on Monday. While they garnered little media coverage, Trump blew out his primary rivals, winning more than 97% of the vote over former Massachusetts Gov. Bill Weld and former Illinois congressman Joe Walsh, who each came in with about 1% each.

In many ways, Trump won both caucuses. And he knew it. He took to Twitter early to needle Democrats for their pathetic efforts in Iowa.

“The Democrat Party in Iowa really messed up, but the Republican Party did not. I had the largest re-election vote in the history of that great state, by far, beating President Obama’s previous record by a lot. Also, 97% Plus of the vote! Thank you Iowa!” Trump wrote first thing in the morning.

The Iowa Democratic Party put out a statement early Tuesday morning saying, “We found inconsistencies in the reporting of three sets of results. In addition to the tech systems being used to tabulate results, we are also using photos of results and a paper trail to validate that all results match.” Then they added: “This is not a hack or an intrusion.”

That opened another door for Trump, who was investigated for more than two years over charges that he colluded with Russia to steal the 2016 election, only to be completely exonerated.

“When will the Democrats start blaming RUSSIA, RUSSIA, RUSSIA, instead of their own incompetence for the voting disaster that just happened in the Great State of Iowa?” he wrote mockingly first thing in the morning.

Trump even defended Iowa. “It is not the fault of Iowa, it is the Do Nothing Democrats fault. As long as I am President, Iowa will stay where it is. Important tradition!” he wrote.

And the debacle has only just begun. Already there are allegations that the Democratic Party is somehow trying to derail democratic socialist Sen. Bernie Sanders, who had suddenly risen to the top of the polls. Once the smoke clears, there will be endless charges about the final numbers, with candidates claiming they actually won. The fact that the disastrous app was designed by former campaign officials for Hillary Clinton will only make matters worse.

Which led Trump to type out one more tweet.

“The Democrat Caucus is an unmitigated disaster. Nothing works, just like they ran the Country. Remember the 5 Billion Dollar Obamacare Website, that should have cost 2% of that. The only person that can claim a very big victory in Iowa last night is ‘Trump,'” he wrote.

He sure got that right.

Iowa to release 62% of the voting results

(CNN live)

Troy Price - we have a paper trail. We have the basic data

He cannot say when they will have 100%

They found a coding error in the app.

He is unaware of any DHS offer to review

https://go.cnn.com/?stream=cnn


w 62% reporting:

Buttigieg 26.9%
Sanders 25.1
Warren 18.3
Biden 15.6
Klobuchar 12.6%
Yang 1.1%


there is a diff in # state delegates and popular vote ?? (appears to be an effect similar to electoral college)

There are 41 delegate votes at stake

If this were the Republicans, the votes would have counted by now. Since it’s the Democrats, they’re going to take their sweet finding, I mean counting ballots.

They do it at every level. Socialist Kshama Sawant in Seattle city council was trailing her Republican contender by a good margin in the most recent election and refused to concede, even days later. Sure enough, they “found” enough ballots for her to retain her seat.

They play dirty pool, it’s what they do.

I wish Nanny Bloomberg would win some.. that would persuade him to pour more money in and run as an Independent. There will be pandemonium and such teeth gnashing from the left.

Booty-gig did way better than expected. He has been heavily invested there, having spent the most time in Iowa.



"Some things are apparent. Where government moves in, community retreats, civil society disintegrates and our ability to control our own destiny atrophies. The result is: families under siege; war in the streets; unapologetic expropriation of property; the precipitous decline of the rule of law; the rapid rise of corruption; the loss of civility and the triumph of deceit. The result is a debased, debauched culture which finds moral depravity entertaining and virtue contemptible."

Go gold, as Bill would say. As opposed to "shoot it in the head" for the previous version.

I heard the core DNC is in a real panic that Biden did so poorly. He's their boy.

Do they still have their 500 or so Super delegates? If they still do, no worry, they will fix it for him.

I'll bet it's a media set-up so that they can pre-empt Trump's state of the union address to cover the Iowa bullshit.
